Thanks to Yam, I found out about Lifehouse’s upcoming visit to Manila on July 26, 2008. Talk about big thing! My fellow Street Team friends and I were just talking about it! I was kind of hoping our team would handle Lifehouse’s first visit to Manila…but oh well. Too bad. It would’ve been amazing, though, hanging out with them and all. But oh well.
Anyway, YES, Lifehouse is coming, and here are the ticket prices:
No general admission? Hm, is it because they’re not expecting a full coliseum? And the price for LowerBox seems wrong, because even if the same priced Patron is elevated, it’s still not the same as Lowerbox.
But anyway. At least it’s cheaper than Maroon 5, and way cheaper than gps fleet tracking devices. More expensive than Switchfoot or Hillsong United, but then again, that’s us. Because I’m sort of a cheapskate (and because I predict that I’ll be sort of bankrupt by then), I’m eyeing Upper A or Upper B tickets. It’s enough if I hear them, yes?
Like I said, I’m not much of an American Idol fan, and after David Cook’s Always Be My Baby, I hardly listened to any of the other songs anymore (I’m selective that way). But then I read from LandofBrokenHearts.org that David would be singing Dare You to Move…well, I just fell in love with him even more:
And of course, there’s the AMAZINGI Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing, which almost made me hyperventilate while listening:
Now, I’m no music know-it-all, and I am not saying he’s the best among the two other contestants (haven’t heard any song from the other two yet), but I love love love him. I love his rocker voice. And I love that he sang a Switchfoot song. ♥
Imagine this: David Cook and Switchfoot singing Dare You to Move together. Ahhh! Can I faint now?
David Cook FTW? I want to! But even if he doesn’t become American Idol, I’m sure he has a bright career ahead. :)
Talk about Twilight yumminess. It really helped that when I was reading Twilight, I already knew Robert Pattinson was playing Edward, so it was easier for me to imagine him. He’s hot enough to burn a thick thick mattress! ♥
But you know who really caught my eye here?
Emmett. Suddenly I love him even more. Haha. Kellan Lutz is definitely Emmet. :P
I can’t wait for the movie all of a sudden. I should remember to re-read Twilight before the movie shows in December. =D
One thing I love about Dave signing up for a record company is now his songs would have more airtime (not here, of course) and that means his singles would have to have videos. :D YAY. So now I present to you Dave Barnes’ video of (in my best friend’s words) the ultimate song, Until You. Go and grab some food from your fridge, pantry or popcorn machines, sit back and enjoy. :D Spread the Dave love. ♥
First off…INTERNET! I HAS IT! PLDT has been acting up for the past days, and I’ve been forced to sleep early because of it. Hee.
Anyway, since it’s almost my bedtime, I’ll drop by for a quick entry because the second part of an awaited package just arrived today. :D A few weeks ago I ordered some CDs online, including Dave Barnes’ Me and You and the World (which should have arrived at my friend’s aunt’s place now, and will be physically here by mid-May). After ordering that, I was talking to my friend who was ordering some stuff online too, and she mentioned ordering a particular artist’s album. Her CDs are waaay too expensive at Amazon, so I checked the one that her official site is endorsing, and saw it was cheaper there. And it accepts Paypal! And it ships to the Philippines! Whopee!
After a few weeks of waiting (and worrying if the second part of the package would ever arrive here)…it is finally here! Brooke Fraser finally arrived at my doorstep!
Brooke Fraser’s albums are miiine!
YAY! They aren’t my first original CDs (my first was Jennifer Knapp’s Lay it Down) and they’re not really the first CDs bought overseas (it was Hillsong’s Mighty to Save)…but these are the first CDs I ordered with my own money online. :D This is hard to find here and is really expensive in Amazon (around $30 per CD! GASP!). Buying it from Sanity is a great deal, plus it shipped all the way to my house! :D
I’ve listened to Brooke’s songs a thousand times already, but I love the fact that I have her CDs now. :) I’ll try to post a review of her albums soon — in the best way that I can, don’t expect too much. :P
I know this is weird, but it feels so nice to be able to support the artists I love. :) I started with Switchfoot and Jon Foreman (I bought all his 3 EPs a few weeks back), now with Dave Barnes and Brooke Fraser. :) Give me time, I’ll get to buy the albums of all the artists I love; even if it’s only through iTunes.
If you really love the artist, support them! It’s really no different than supporting a charity or an event or drug rehabilitation. What’s cool is that when you finally get to meet the artist, you have something for them to sign, which they would really appreciate you having. And of course, they’d have the funds to continue making the music that we love. Win-win, yes? :)
Brooke Fraser’s albums are miiine!
